Insurance - 6 months or 6 visits?

[GoingRogue 53]

I have Cigna and was told its 3 months but that is 4 visits so you can get a visit after the last month. I'm sure it varies by insurances though but that is weird.

Mine required "6 months" but it was actually 180 days. I ended up having to go to a 7th appointment because they had to be each month until after the 180 days.

I had to do 6 mos/180 days. I started the process in Aug 2015. I completed every bring by FEb 2016. I was sleeved on 5/10.

I just did it so I know

It's 7 visits, first is a "consult"

6 nutrition visits

Then you have to wait for approval

I did 6 visits in 5 months my first visit counted as 1 month and I was just approved no problem. Your coordinator should be able to let you know what your insurance requirements are though.

How many visits with Medicare? Does anyone have original Medicare insurance & knows the exact requirements as far as how many visits of supervised weight loss? When I call medicare, they won't tell me much & they said it doesn't say how many visits, just that I need to have failed diets in the past & to have my docs office call them to get exact info
